The gears would spin endlessly, trapped in a chaotic loop, because the calculator was trying to compute something that simply can’t exist. Engineers jokingly called this a “Sahar,” a reminder that even machines can lose their minds when logic breaks. It’s a strange, beautiful glimpse of how early hardware exposed t
